103. Spieler, H. (1982). Unpublished note. The CCD output (r o ≈ 3 kΩ) drove an external common-gate JFET amplifier (gain ≈ 4) with an input impedance of 100 Ω. A subsequent limiting amplifier (cascade of bipolar transistor differential pairs) constrained the amplitude of the clock pulse feedthrough and allowed retrieval of MIP level signals at a clock rate of 20 MHz.
